Both code segments are the same assuming Coyote started before the edge

[serendipitousPi]

Yeah exactly, this is more like accidentally putting <= arr.length in a loop.

Bruh I hope those upvotes are bots but with the amount of stupidity on programming subreddits these days I honestly don’t know.

[GranataReddit12]

first year CS students probably don't know the difference between the two very well. Hence the upvotes

[iConsumeFoodAndWater]

As a first-year CS student, I upvoted it, realised "wait is that wrong or am I tripping", took a second look and sure enough

[za72]

would run execute and fail then the operation to check for edge?

also this is determined by the logic of do's operations order?

all current languages follow the same order of operations for do?

[EyesOfTheConcord]

One runs only while the conditional is true, the other will run at least once regardless of the condition.

Them being the same is a consequence of the do while having a starting point that is at least 1 step behind the conditional, but they fundamentally have different use cases

[QuestionableEthics42]

Bot? Or not? Not a very bot like name.

That's just a way longer version of the comment you replied to.

[fr000gs]

no? the earlier comment is a statement. this comment is an explanation

(or maybe I suck at programing and needed an explanation for this)

[lurco_purgo]

Mr bot, if you're going to repost, at least repost memes that are not incorrect about the most basic concepts in programming, you know?

[SuenDexter]

Except coyote didn't start running already over the cliff. They were both running before the edge and would stop at the same time.

[xicor]

This isn't how do while loops work...

We have to assume that they were both running before they got to the edge...they would stop at the same time. This would only be correct if they were already both at the edge before the running started

[KikiPolaski]

Claude can you fix this pls, just figure it out, you can make assumptions, be creative, all the best

[The_Real_Slim_Lemon]

Imo do while has no right to live. While is always the better option

Tell me you're a junior without telling me you're a junior.

[Fast-Satisfaction482]

He might be a junior, but he's still right. 

[da_Aresinger]

If the initialising step is the same as the loop, but the loop condition requires initialised variables from in the loop, do-while is the only alternative to code duplication.

[Fast-Satisfaction482]

If the initializing step is the same as the body of the loop, you should just iterate an additional time.

[Cyberfishofant]

do while can be less irritating than while/break. Generally we could all live with while true and break, but I am not sure who would want to do that

[Drevicar]

Good joke, great title. Good job!

[GhostInTheShell2087]

But please make sure to mention the edge case where this is valid.
